Case Study & Engineering Overview
The Aligarh Municipal Stadium Canopy stands as a landmark installation in Aligarh, UP, representing ArcShade's state-of-the-art approach to modern tensile architecture. Engineered to protect and shelter a total span of 6,800 sq.ft, this Stadium / Commercial structure blends premium aesthetic form with top-tier structural stability.
Membrane & Material Profile: PTFE
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Coated Fiberglass was chosen for this installation. PTFE is class-A non-combustible, chemically inert, and completely immune to UV degradation. It features a self-cleaning surface where dirt washes off naturally during rainfall, ensuring a pristine white finish for over 30 to 50 years.
Structural Integrity & Framing
As a large-scale Commercial / Stadium Canopy, this project employs heavy-duty structural steel trusses designed with computer-aided form-finding geometry. The double-curved design allows for massive column-free spans, maximizing open space and visibility.
